Recursive partitioning analysis for the prediction of stereotactic radiosurgery brain metastases lesion control.
PURPOSE The objective of this investigation was to identify independent pretreatment factors that predict for control of local brain metastases (BM) in a large single-institution series of patients receiving stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS). Recursive partitioning analysis was used to potentially identify a class of patients with durable lesion control characteristics. METHODS A retrospective ...

متن کامل[Stereotactic radiosurgery and radiotherapy for brain metastases].
Brain metastases management is still controversial even though many trials are trying to define the respective roles of neurosurgery, whole-brain radiotherapy, single-dose stereotactic radiotherapy and fractionated stereotactic radiotherapy. In this article, we review data from trials that examine the role of radiosurgery and fractionated stereotactic radiotherapy in the management of brain met...
متن کاملWhole Brain Radiotherapy Combined with Stereotactic Radiosurgery versus Stereotactic Radiosurgery Alone for Brain Metastases.
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of whole brain radiotherapy (WBRT) combined with streotactic radiosurgery versus stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) alone for patients with brain metastases. MATERIALS AND METHODS This was a retrospective study that evaluated the results of 46 patients treated for brain metastases at Dr. Abdurrahman Yurtaslan Ankara Oncology Training an...
متن کاملThe Usefulness of Stereotactic Radiosurgery for Radioresistant Brain Metastases
OBJECTIVE We investigated the effectiveness of stereotactic gamma knife Radiosurgery (GKR) for radioresistant brain metastases with the impact upon histology. METHODS Between April 2004 and May 2011, a total of 23 patients underwent GKR for 67 metastatic brain tumors from 12 renal cell cancers, 5 sarcomas and 6 melanomas. The mean age was 56 years (range, 18 to 79 years). Most of the patients...
